Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I love that my students are curious, full of energy, and always eager to learn something new. They each bring unique strengths to our classroom, and I’m proud of how hard they try every single day. My students learn best when they are actively engaged, and that’s why having the right resource like iPads can make such a big difference. iPads will help them build strong reading and writing skills through interactive apps, digital books, and fun literacy games. These tools allow students to learn at their own pace and in ways that match how they learn best. With access to technology, my students can explore, create, and grow into confident readers and thinkers.
